Studies in Oral History -
The Journal of Oral History Australia


Oral History Australia and its predecessor, the Oral History Association of Australia, began publishing the journal for the benefit of its members from the inception of the organisation in 1979.

The journal contains articles, reports and book reviews and in recent years has also included a section for peer-reviewed articles. 
The journal's content reflects the diversity and vitality of oral history practice in Australia and may include contributions from overseas.

The publication was initially known as the Oral History Association of Australia Journal. From 2014-2019 it was the Oral History Australia Journal (ISSN: 0158 7366). In 2020 the OHA changed the title to Studies in Oral History. OHA ceased printing copies of the journal with the 2016 issue and since 2017 issues have been published in electronic format only.
In 2020 the OHA decided to make the journal open access.

Work is currently underway to make available the full back catalogue of the journal.
